I have saved a file called circle_red.png in three different places.

On the EDASERVE server, under the application folder baseapp

In the repository in the EnclaraPharmacia folder

In the Web Applications under the folder _shared

I have tried multiple defines but I can't seem to get the correct source address. I am using version 8.0.9. can someone tell me what I am missing?

Thank you

 

DEFINE FILE CAR
-*	CIRCLE_RED/A80 = '<IMG SRC=_shared/circle_red.png>';
-*	CIRCLE_RED/A80 = '<IMG SRC=approot/baseapp/circle_red.png>';
-*	CIRCLE_RED/A80 = '<IMG SRC=baseapp/circle_red.png>';
-*	CIRCLE_RED/A80 = '<IMG SRC=IBFS:/WFC/Repository/EnclaraPharmacia/circle_red.png>';
-*	CIRCLE_RED/A80 = '<IMG SRC=EnclaraPharmacia/circle_red.png>';

END

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
     MODEL
	 CIRCLE_RED
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/endeflt.sty,
$
ENDSTYLE
END

I actually got this to work, but I can't it to work in AHTML. Can you display an image in the report using active HTML?

DEFINE FILE CAR

CIRCLE_RED/A80 = ' ';

END

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
MODEL
CIRCLE_RED
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/endeflt.sty,
$

TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=CIRCLE_RED, IMAGE=IBFS:/WFC/Repository/EnclaraPharmacia/circle_red.png, $

ENDSTYLE
END

Hey Jay,

You may also try:

TYPE=REPORT,
     IMAGE=http://server.domain.com/approot/images/image.gif,
     POSITION=(+0 +0),
$


This works for us. Of course you can modify it to be column-specific. It's not necessarily an AHTML report, but could possibly work that way I would think.

The code you are using is when the image is in the header. I am looking at showing an image in each record depending on a macro condition. I do have it working in HTML. In AHTML is shows nothing. Not even an "X" as if it can't find the image. It does not seem like it is acknowledging the and image should be displayed.

Thank You for responding.

The thing to remember is that the image must be accessible to the browser. So when you get the dreaded "x" for image cannot be displayed, always right click and view the url to ensure that it is "pukka".

If you're not even getting the "x" then right click where it should be or investigate the html output via "view source". Posting that might enable us to point you in the right direction.

This code does produce the image in an AHTML output. My image is in the baseapp application folder.

DEFINE FILE CAR
  CIRCLE_RED/A80 = '<img src="../../approot/baseapp/circle_red.png" />';
END
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT MODEL
	  CIRCLE_RED
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT AHTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
 INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/endeflt.sty,
$
ENDSTYLE
END

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I was so close. I had to use approot/_shared. _shared is my Web Application folder.
